Okay guys, I'm starting the league back up. Get your keepers set, and let's agree on a draft date. For reference, here are the members from last year (names in bold have returned to claim their teams):

I took it easy on you guys in the initial draft, so no complaining. Besides, it's not nearly as hard to correct mistakes as you'd think; high priced talent ends up back in the pool because of inflation, and the new crop of rookies gives you plenty of opportunities to fix things. Not to mention, trades are still allowed, even at this time of year.

To answer your question from earlier, you can keep as many as you like, but the price goes up three bucks a year. I may institute a keeper limit of six though, I've been weighing it back and forth, to help redistribute the talent a bit, since we had our share of first time auction drafters last year.

Sounds good. I think my issue last year was that it was my 4th draft, I believe. I was trying different things or at least, that's what I'll go with. I've set my keepers and I'll keep them set at what they are now until I see how the league shakes up, maybe trade one of them or let them go._________________

As for draft time, I usually have mondays and thursdays off. I work evenings so I'm not sure how I'd be available on other days and it'd probably be difficult to do it early in the day with all of the time differences but whatever, if I can't make it, I'll set my big board up._________________

I just looked at your team, it's not even that bad. You've got seven guys worth keeping, in my estimation. I left Matt Forte on the board for you last year, but I'd be interested in him this year, as well as one of your receivers. Romo is available on my team, if you're not happy with Rivers.

Monday is my preferred day as well, since I have it off. Right now, I'm thinking the 27th, or the 3rd of September.
